    Nice looking Prius; it is way cool to mod your car the way YOU like. I, somewhat, prefer the look of the silver wheel covers to the naked black wheels, although I'm not a fan of their cheap plastic construction.

    Plastidip the rims while they are new and clean. White might look sweet.

    Its not bad at all. Ride is almost identical to stock. Eibach hit the nail on the head with these springs. Definitely not a .8 drop on the rear

    maybe pics don't do it justice but the missing hubcaps makes the car look like it's missing hubcaps...
